What happens to power generated from a generator if not consumed?
The unused power goes to "waste"
What happens when you remove one bulb from a socket in the parallel?
That bulb goes out. The other bulbs remain on.
What is the pressing force that happens on top of an arch bridge?
the top of the arch under goes tension and horizontal thrust
When a resistor is connected in parallel what happens to the size of current form the battery?
When a resistor is added the current goes down, that is expressed in the equation current= voltage/ resistance
What happens when you flush the toilet?
The sewage goes into a collection system, goes through a great filtration process, and is then pushed into a body of water. Towards the end of this process, before being deposited, it is chlorinated to kill any remaining bacteria, and then de-chlorinated because...well...chlorine isn't good to deposit into big bodies of water.
How do smoke detectors detect smoke?
Smoke detectors detect smoke by not detecting it. They sense not the smoke, but the oxygen levels surrounding it. when the oxygen levels drop, or when smoke replaces the oxygen, the alarm goes off.
How to wire smoke detectors properly to ensure effective fire detection and safety in your home?
To wire smoke detectors properly for effective fire detection and safety in your home, follow these steps: Install smoke detectors in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of the home. Connect the smoke detectors in a series so that if one alarm goes off, all alarms will sound. Use the recommended wiring method specified by the manufacturer, typically using a 3-wire cable. Connect the smoke detectors to a dedicated circuit with a battery backup to ensure they work even during a power outage. Test the smoke detectors regularly and replace the batteries at least once a year.
Why do smoke detectors make a beeping noise when the electric goes off they are not hooked to any electric?
When the electricity goes out, a smoke detector may make a final beep as it's capacitor is discharged, as a warning. If the smoke detector has a battery backup, some detectors will beep just to let you know the power is off, and some other units will only beep when the power is off AND the battery is low. Usually there is a legend on the back of the unit that will tell you what the different beeps mean.
How do you test a smoke detector?
To test a smoke detector, press and hold the test button until the alarm sounds. If the alarm does not sound, try replacing the battery. It is recommended to test smoke detectors at least once a month to ensure they are working properly.
Do smoke detectors have to be on a desginated circuit in bedrooms?
Putting smoke detectors on a designated circuit is a good design policy. One of the features of a designated design is that the smoke detectors can be all looped together. The smoke detectors of today have a third terminal where if one detector trips all of the detectors on the circuit have the ability, if connected, to alarm. All of the detectors are wired with a 3 conductor #14 cable. The black and white wires are used for power to the detector and the third red wire is used on the third terminal to alarm all of the detectors on the circuit when one smoke detector trips. With all detectors in an alarm mode it is hard not to hear or sleep through any emergency because of closed doors blocking the sound. Using this method of connection it is recommended a detector in each bedroom and above the stairwell between floors. Keep away from the kitchen area or the whole house will know when someone burns the toast.
What happens if sulphur burns in oxygen?
The flame goes green and lots of smoke it let off
Why is Americium-241 used in smoke detectors?
Americium-241 is a radioactive isotope and used in smoke detectors to ionize the air (gives air molecules a charge). This allows a small current t flow between two contacts placed in the air chamber. When smoke particles enter the chamber, they attach themselves to the ionized molecules (by electrostatic attraction) effectively making them bigger and slowing the current. The detector then goes off when the current slows.
Where smoke detectors are used?
According to NFPA 72, the national fire code, smoke detectors shall be installed in each sleeping area, outside each sleeping area, and on each story of a home, i.e. top and bottom of stairways.
What is the principle of the working of the alarm?
There are a lot of fire alarm systems depending what kind of an alarm system you want.Fire alarm system with (smoke detectors,heat detectors,flame detectors almost the same with heat detectors,ionized smoke detectors and duct detectors) depending on the system of your needs.For you to understand it I will explain 2 of it.Smoke detectors have smoke sensors in side if the smoke is too much the alarm system starts to work,that means alarm works.How the alarm works the smoke detection system analysis the air which goes through it , if the sensor senses any increase of CO or CO2 then it starts the alarm. Flame or heat detector has a contact which is made of 2 different materials which has different specific heat, İf any heat reaches to this contact according t the different specific heated material contact bends towards the more specific heated material( you can do it with copper and iron at home if you fix them with a nonmetallic material and heat them even with a lighter you will see it with your eyes) than the alarm starts because the contact touches a metallic material to give the energy to the horn or bell.( for more specific information try Notifier or Honeywell
What happens if your radiator goes out?
car overheats and produces steam/smoke. may crack engine block or head.
What nicknames does Nick Smoke go by?
Nick Smoke goes by Nicky Smoke.
How come when i burn out the tires will spin and burn out and then they dont it goes back and forth between burning out and catching trackimg and theres alot of jerking when it happens?
Traction not tracking
